Me, Myself, & High
My breathing above average, with a little manliness to it.. And yours full-stage-frozen.
Never knowing that lies could encase me like rhino-liner, I let yours. It's hard, to talk about
two people, when they're part of a
whole. The universe held it's weighty sighs betwixt your thighs and it's expectations to my
jugular. What could be the meaning of a meaningless enterprise; life. My knees shaking a bit,
and your eyebrows like a Maury show
whore. Humanity sure has a lot to pay for. When you get guys going to a head shop for
more than a smoke; that's when you pull out Mr. Benjamin. My hands so placid they're
politically correct, and your legs so crossed you're
lesbian. The universal language is hate. And you needn't go far to discover it; look there's
yourself. Put the handgun away sir, you don't need it to rob the mind of this child. Just
smile. My eyes already open, and your ears are
ringing. Green for jealousy; for must; for life; for lust; green for the world and everything in
it; green for you and I. Like a bomb hidden in a pipe, there isn't love without sacrifice. My
jaw is slack, and you're soundly
lacking. Pressure is human existence; it's what keeps me here without you, and you with
me. Maybe.. Maybe, the whole world was "born this way". Maybe the whole world should
teach its children not to wander inside of themselves and hide. Instead of getting
high.
